We already know there’s been a huge uptick in spammers and scammers over the past five years. I have noticed even more within the past two years. While this has been happening for decades, techies, hackers, spammers, and scammers who like to fool people into giving them money by using A2P technology (app to consumer calls and texts - think VOIP) has ruined it for the rest of us. 

Now the carriers will block all calls and texts from numbers not registered with various platforms like Twilio, Phone Wagon, Call Rail, Vonnage, etc.

This has been pushed by the FTC and other government agencies, so…

If you don’t take this seriously, you will be left wondering what’s going on and how to fix it because starting Aug 31, 2023, your number will be completely blocked to the consumer if it’s not registered.

Join us in this amazing episode where Amber Jones from Empowered HomePros will unpack our current situation in North America and how phone providers and carriers have started issuing price increases and filtering out spam messages and calls for consumers.
